The Training School: «Multiscale modeling of the properties of compounds: From isolated molecules to 3D materials relevant for industrial and astrophysical applications» is organized by the COST action CA21101 COSY. It will take place September 19-22, 2023 in Belgrade.

The goal of this Training School is to provide an overview of current modelling and computational methods and their applications to treat interaction and dynamics of molecular systems either isolated or in confined environments, which may consist of enclosing molecular cages, surfaces, interfaces as well as of strong electromagnetic static or optical fields. These compounds are important in fundamental and applied sciences and have industrial and astrophysical relevance. Thе Training School will focus on modern problems where the system complexity is treated at several scales. Thus, the scientific program should cover a broad range of topics, including physical and chemical aspects of multiscale modeling of solids, gases, liquid mixtures, fluid-structure interaction, and biopolymers (proteins and nucleic acids), focusing on the study of the effect of the molecular crowding on the structure and dynamics of biological macromolecules, the self-assembling patterns in reaction-diffusion systems, the use of quantum, semi-classical, and classical methods for the characterization of electronic structure and dynamics of molecules and clusters.
The School is intended for all researchers engaged in computational modelling in material science, chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering.
Our Training School will comprise four days of lectures, complemented by exercises, aimed to provide a practical insight into the selected problems within the different fields covered. In addition, the School will host poster sessions where the trainees will have the opportunity to present their work, creating new synergies among the young researchers and lecturers.
